Yu Pinyan didn't return home until Zishi, and the lights in the main courtyard were still on, so it could be seen that the old lady was waiting for him.
"Are you back? When will you go to war?" The old lady propped her forehead with one hand and held a cane in the other, her face was old and haggard.
"Tonight, I will go to the hussars battalion to order soldiers, and when will I leave." Yu Pinyan helped her to sit on the soft couch.
The old lady drank a cup of ginseng tea with shaking hands, and asked, "How many soldiers do you want?"
"The army is 800,000."
The old lady counted her fingers, her back slowly bent, and she sighed, "That means you will be leaving in half a month?"
Yu Pinyan nodded silently. The hall was quiet, and after a long time, the old lady held his hand tightly, crying, "You must come back safely! Seeing that Xiang'er's leg is about to heal, you must come back and see her standing with your own eyes." The appearance of getting up. Be sure to come back."
Yu Pinyan's voice was dry, "Don't worry, old ancestor, grandson will definitely come back and won't leave you alone."
The grandparents and grandchildren sat facing each other holding hands, silently, about two quarters of an hour later, the old lady said tiredly, "Go and see your sister, she has been kneeling for you all day in the Buddhist hall, No matter how much I persuade you, you won’t listen.”
Yu Pinyan suppressed his anxiety and replied, "Grandson will help you go back to your room to sleep before going to see her. You must take care of your health when grandson is away, and don't let grandson worry about you even thousands of miles away."
The old lady nodded and finally showed some smiles.
Yu Pinyan waited until the old lady fell asleep before quickly walking towards the Buddhist hall. From a distance, he could see Tao Hong and Liu Lu hovering restlessly at the door. The two turned their heads to look back when they heard the footsteps, and found that it was Master Hou who showed joy on his face, and hurriedly went up to report, "Master Hou, you can be regarded as coming back, the young lady has been kneeling inside for a day. Her leg has just improved a little bit." , can't kneel for a long time..."
Before the words fell, Yu Pinyan seemed to pass by like a gust of wind, leaving only the tightly closed door, and two other guards with knives guarded the door.
A few rows of candles were lit in the Buddhist hall, and a faint Zen scent floated in the air. The eyelids of the Bodhisattvas on the altars were half-closed, watching the believers kneeling at their feet with compassionate eyes. Her back was very thin, and reflected in the flickering candlelight, she showed a lot of fragility. Mysterious scriptures kept overflowing from her mouth, and her smooth pronunciation was full of the most pious hope.
She didn't turn her head when she heard the footsteps, but the scriptures she recited paused for a moment.
Yu Pinyan strode over, knelt behind her, stretched his arms to the front, wrapped her in his arms, covered her clasped hands with his big hands, and sighed quietly, "Don't kneel, be careful of hurting your legs."
Yu Xiang listened but did not hear, and continued to chant.
Yu Pinyan separated her clasped hands, took out the copper coin in her palm and threw it on the futon beside her, hugged her to his lap and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm going to go to war in half a month, come back tonight Pack up your things and move to the hussars battalion, and I won’t be able to come back to say goodbye to you until the battle. Don’t kneel, let alone chant scriptures. If I hurt my leg, I will feel restless when I go out to fight. On the battlefield, life and death are only in one In a flash, if I get distracted, maybe..."
An angry expression finally appeared on Yu Xiang's numb face, and quickly covered his mouth with his small hands, and scolded, "In front of the Buddha, don't talk about life and death. I won't kneel or chant scriptures anymore. You like to go away." Just leave, treat me as a rarity?"
In fact, she was so rare that she was dying, and only then did she understand why some people love to the extreme and want to tie up their lovers and hide them. Right now, she has the urge to tie up Yu Pinyan and lock her up. She thought that their days were still long, but she suddenly discovered what it means to change things in the world. Those who snuggled together sweetly yesterday will rush to the battlefield filled with gunpowder today...
She didn't dare to imagine how many catastrophes he would face, let alone how she would live after leaving him. She seemed to have forgotten how to breathe, and only boundless fear remained in her senses.
But she would never reveal the slightest bit of fear in front of him. She hoped that he would set off fearlessly and come back safely. I wanted to say a few soft words to reassure him, but everything changed when I said it.
Yu Pinyan laughed in a low voice, "You don't care about me, can't I care about you? After I leave, you must take medicine and exercise on time, but you can't practice for too long, and be careful to wear your palms. I will return triumphantly." On that day, you must stand on the high city gate to welcome me..."
Yu Xiang covered her mouth with a contemptuous smile, "Are you so confident that I will definitely wait for you? You don't know when you'll be back after you go. The shortest is a year or so, and the longest is three to five years. How old will I be then?"
She struggled out of her brother's arms. She wanted to stand up and take two steps gracefully, but her knees became numb due to kneeling for too long. She tried several times but failed, so she had to sit on another futon, her slender legs front and back They overlapped each other, propped one hand on the ground, and rested the other lazily on their knees, posing in an extremely seductive sitting posture.
"Look at me," she raised her hand to twirl her cloud-like hair on her temples with a haughty look on her face, "I don't want to say that my looks are all over the country, but I can also be gorgeous. My figure is slender and fit. One point is thinner, no more, no less just right," fingertips slid down the side of the cheeks and neck to the shoulders, opened the blouse to reveal half of the white and round shoulders, and continued, "Broken legs are a big shortcoming, but now Even my legs are healed, and sooner or later I will be able to grow lotuses every step of the way. Tell me, who would not want to marry a wonderful person like me? Why do you think I will wait for you? If you don't come back within two years, Sorry, then I have to stop hugging Pipa."
After the words fell, she squinted her eyes to secretly watch her brother's expression.
How could Yu Pinyan not know about her duplicity, but she was still stabbed in the heart by her words 'don't hug the pipa', and suddenly bullied her, biting her annoying red lips with a sinking face.
The two were entangled with each other quickly, and a gust of wind blew by, flickering the flickering candles, and projected their figures regardless of each other on the snow-white wall. After the fierce kiss, Yu Xiang felt that her numb knees had regained consciousness. She pushed away her brother who was pressing on her, sat on his abdomen, picked up the copper coins on the futon and stuffed them into his inner pocket, saying every word Admonish, "Be sure to come back alive, otherwise I won't wait for you."
The dim candlelight illuminated the tears in her eyes, and the fear and sadness contained in them made Yu Pinyan unable to breathe. He pressed his sister into his arms, and it took him a long time to reply in a hoarse voice, "Okay, I will definitely come back safely." After a pause, he continued, "If there is something difficult to solve, you can go to Shen Yuanqi, he will take care of you. "
Yu Xiang didn't answer, just rubbed his cheek against his warm chest.
The two hugged each other quietly for a while, and only after hearing the sound of gongs and drums, they opened the door and came out. Yu Pinyan bent down to pick up his younger sister, but she refused, "Save your strength and fight, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep all night tonight." Then he sat in the wheelchair and ordered Tao Hong and Liu Lu to come over and push him .
Yu Pinyan had no choice but to walk side by side with her. Seeing that Jingfu Courtyard was about to arrive, Yu Xiang suddenly grabbed his big hand, raised her head and whispered, "Brother, I lied to you. I will always wait for you, always wait You, if you don't come back, I will die here. As you said, I was born as a member of the Yu family and died as a ghost of the Yu family, so I won't go anywhere. "
Her eyes were filled with crystal clear tears, but she stubbornly held her head up and refused to let it fall, and her dark pupils were filled with love and determination. At this moment, the moon hanging in the sky dimmed, the lingering breeze froze, and the sound of frogs and insects in the grass stopped abruptly... All of a sudden, there was only the girl who was so beautiful in front of him that made his heart relax.
Once again, he deeply realized that she was an existence he could never let down. He opened his mouth, wanting to respond, but found that his throat was so congested that he couldn't even utter a word. He could only bend down, press her on the back of the chair and kiss her frantically, holding her cheeks in both hands, not allowing her red lips to recede for a moment.
Tao Hong and Liu Lu hurriedly covered their mouths to stop the exclamation that was about to overflow their throats, then turned their backs to look around, for fear of being bumped into by others. Fortunately, it was now the third quarter of the scandal, everyone was asleep, and there were only quietly standing trees in the garden.
The two kissed inseparably, and it took a long time before they stopped panting heavily. Yu Pinyan held his sister's small face, and carefully pecked and kissed her forehead, nose tip, side of cheek, etc., then picked her up and strode back. Tao Hong and Liu Lu hurriedly followed with their wheelchairs.
After the group walked away, a thin figure came out of the fake cave. The moonlight shone on her pale face, but it was Yu Miaoqi's big girl, Baosheng.
"Miss, miss, open the door quickly, miss!" She knocked on the door hastily.
"What's the noise at night?" The night watch girl opened the door and put a blouse on Yu Miaoqi who was half sitting up.
"What's the matter with you?" Yu Miaoqi propped her forehead impatiently.
Baosheng glanced at the girl, Yu Miaoqi understood, sent her away, and then urged, "Tell me what's going on, and don't even look at what time it is."
"Miss, this servant is very hungry in the middle of the night, and I want to go to the kitchen to get some food." She took out a cold steamed bun from her bosom to prove what she said, and continued, "But I didn't expect to meet him on the way. Master Hou and Miss San. Do you know what they are doing?"
"What are you doing?" Yu Miaoqi's impatient look dissipated in an instant, and she leaned slightly, staring at Baosheng's opening and closing mouth.
"They, they are here, at that..." Baosheng compared his lips, his face flushed with embarrassment.
"Which one?" Yu Miaoqi's nerves were tense, and she had a vague guess.
"They are kissing, and they are kissing so loudly." Baosheng finished speaking in one breath, and lowered his head to cover his face. That scene was so hot that she felt ashamed just thinking about it.
Yu Miaoqi was stunned, and it took a long while before she clapped her hands and laughed, her voice trembling with excitement, "Wow! I said how could Yu Pinyan dote on a bastard so much, but it turned out that he already had an affair. Well, that's great, this time I will definitely let that bastard fall into a place of eternal doom!"
